==Overview==
With the cover of ''TCP 016'' touting "new music, imports, rarities, production, videos", the two-disc set is comprised of a completely audio Disc One, and Disc Two features a few dance tracks linked in a megamix, with several CD-ROM videos and video game demos.  The Disc One features intermittent spoken word/announcement tracks much like a radio station ID, and the whole thing plays like a radio show.

Disc One of ''TCP 016'' contains an extremely rare Weezer acoustic rendition of "[[Buddy Holly]]", recorded at St. Louis radio station KPNT.  The disc's artwork does not specify the date of the recording, but [[Rivers]]' [[Catalog of Riffs]] suggests it was on [[August 31]], [[1994]].
